DIY Projects for Shelter Animals #PetBloggerMonth
Last week I participated in a BlogPaws campaign where I was challenged to create a project or craft for my local shelter that would have an impact on the health or well-being of the animals in the shelter, their ability to get adopted, the communities' desire to adopt from the shelter, or the shelter staff’s ability to care for the animals, using supplies purchased with a $25 gift card from Tractor Supply. This was done in association with the store's annual Pet Appreciation Week celebration.
On Saturday I attended the #Paw2014 event at my local store and picked up some fun freebies, including the bandana Truffles is modeling above and a sample package of TSC's exclusive 4Health brand pet food (which gets four paws up!)
I haven't been asked to post this wrap-up, and am not being compensated for it, but I have been so inspired by the creativity of my fellow bloggers that I decided to collect the links to each DIY project in the hopes that all of you might be inspired to create something fun for your local shelter as well.

Great idea. I make toys for the shelter I volunteer at out our of strips of fleece blankets.
So many fun ideas. I volunteer for The Doney Clinic and we just love it when girl and boy scouts, classes, senior homes or knitting circles make us treats or items.
It looks like everyone has come up with some really great and creative things to make!!
